Finally all the questions I wanted are in this video. I am actually really impressed on what exway have done with this man and look forward to a another video on this in the near future. Happy new year bro. Keep killing it 👊🏽🤙🏽

[@ASeSkater]

Thank you bro! It’s great what they’re doing. Happy new year!

[@DrewElia]

nice video my dude! I tried the aux pack and 4wd atlas pro, loads of power and a stupid amount of range! love the look of the new background set up as well cheers

[@ASeSkater]

Thanks bro! Great to have you here. Glad you like the setup! 🤙

[@aniibhat]

👌🏼🔥 clean editing as usual

[@ASeSkater]

Ayy thanks my bro

[@timreha]

very informative the battery pack design is rad.

[@dazedb]

My kaly arrived, I rode it for about 10 minutes and jumped back on the Atlas. This kaly turns like a battleship!

[@ajplant96]

Then dial it in a bit? It’s not a dkp board so it’s not gonna turn as tight, you can loosen it up a bit and have channel trucks turn as good as dkp in some scenarios but you lose stability which is more what kaly is about anyway.

[@ASeSkater]

Damn! Was it the XL40 you bought?

[@dazedb]

@AS eSkater The xl2.0 was on sale for 2k$ in September. I jumped on it.

[@dazedb]

@AJ Ernesto is sending me softer bushings. Carving is my thing. I go more sideways than forwards lol. I already moved the front and back trucks to the inside bushing position. I'll take it on a full on ride and test it more thoroughly

[@eBoard3R]

⚡🤙🏼 *Some would argue that Trampa did it first, or ChiBattery did it first but the fact is, they Didn't, not quite* ⚡🤙🏼 This has more mass appeal and wider audience, simpler connectivity, from the brand that makes the board, for someone ridin streets. Exway have taken somethin and made it more accessable to the average Exway rider, in a simpler plug and play package. I will wait and see how it does long-term, how popular it is or isn't, whether there's any issues etc but I love that they offer this and a simple way to attach it for the days you need/want and just remove it for shorter runs.

[@ASeSkater]

Accessibility! Spot on. I too will have to wait and see how it holds up under long term use. I wish it was summer so I could actually use it more lol

[@simpkahn]

Great vid mate and it's good to have details on the accessory, no others seemed to go into this detail. Loving what Exway are doing in this space :D To answer your question about what I ride, I have 4, an Onsra black carve 1, an Onsra black carve 2, an Onsra Challenger (all direct drive - I like the quiet) and a Backfire Hammer (yeah, I got the tail wing for a laugh).

[@ASeSkater]

Thanks Josh! Glad to have you here. Haha I bet that wing gives you an extra 1mph! 😂 Cool that you have 3 Onsra’s too. I’ve ridden the BC2 and I really liked the deck. You can always be on the road with multiple boards!

[@jamesfarquhar8507]

I started with exway but it got stolen after a week, then I got a Raldey, it was a water sponge, then I got the atlas 2 WD and that got water damage after a month so I currently ride a refurbished Skatebolt Tornado II while I get my pro deck the drivetrain and charger and remote I need, and by July I will need an aux setup because I’m planning interstate travel, this video has been very useful to me and I will return to it when I get my own AUX Pack.

[@jamesfarquhar8507]

The refurbished Tornado II has been the cheapest and longest lasting eboard I’ve bought ($300)

[@jamesfarquhar8507]

My tornado II once stopped working while in the rain, a week later it was working again.

[@MrDive2010]

Cool vid, currently on Meepo Hurricane. Checking out other options.

[@taneliharkonen2463]

Awesome stuff! 💪 That is truly a mind blowing amount of range 🤯 Btw that starhead allen key is called Torx. Just buy a torx set and ur golden not having to use those cheap pieces of metal ☝

[@ASeSkater]

Thanks a lot for that info Taneli! I'll be ordering a set tonight 😏

[@esk8jaimes]

My winter board is a 2020 Lycaon GR, but lately my favourite is the Yecoo MTS short board. Just wish it had a larger battery option than 7ah...

[@ASeSkater]

Interesting Jaimes! I’d never heard of the Yecoo till you mentioned it. Looks like a fun board!

[@esk8jaimes]

@@ASeSkater It really is, most fun I've had on a short electric skateboard yet. Previously I tried the short board from Verreal Board but it was basically using their stock F1 system which had too much torque; to the point where I couldn't stop it from doing manuals even on the slowest speed mode! Thankfully, this board is more tame on the takeoff with a Meepo V3 Ling-Yi ESC and 4 brake modes, but that tameness could likely be influenced by its mid-sized 105 donut wheels.

[@cdbrown30]

Exway wave user. I love riding the wave. There’s never enough range though.

[@cdbrown30]

Imagine the atlas pro going up the hills of Colorado roads

[@esk8jaimes]

I dare you to make a seat attachment for that Aux Pack!

[@ASeSkater]

Hahah. That would be crazily fun

[@M0LHA]

Now that’s a coincidence I was going to buy this very configuration yesterday, looking forward to what you have to say

[@M0LHA]

Ed: I was thinking of the 4ish with the aux pack

[@M0LHA]

Any clue how many amps the usb ports can deliver?

[@ASeSkater]

@@M0LHA Sorry mate unsure on amps but RE the USB ports they are a 25W USB-A port and a 100W USB-C PD port. Atlas Pro 4WD with AUX is an insane setup!

[@M0LHA]

@@ASeSkater That's a lot of juice out of those ports. Very interesting. It may even be possible to trickle charge another board given the sheer size of the battery. We've had it a few times in London where someone has run out of power and has had to be towed by another rider. This could potentially give someone that little bit of extra range to find a stop point. How long did it take to arrive? I believe with the Chinese new year I doubt anything will rock up till Feb/March (mind you the weather is awful anyway). Not sure if you're still an ambassador, any ideas if they are considering direct drive in 4x4 config? That'd be cool. One final question as I've built my own DIY "aux battery" (nothing of this size though). Does the aux battery hook into the BMS of the boards battery, or is it in parallel with the existing battery (ie, in theory the ESC could pull more amps in total, less risk of voltage sag under high load)? It'd be interesting to find out.

[@ASeSkater]

@@M0LHA May well be. This battery packs more juice than the EB70 I reviewed a short while ago which literally has plug sockets on it. I bet with enough persistence someone will conjure up a cable to make this battery work with DIY and other non-Exway boards. It took around 2 weeks to arrive but bare in mind I got this pack for review. I think they start shipping out normal AUX orders out this month. Direct drive is still in the works I'm pretty sure. They decided to release gear drive first. I've seen an 4wd hub Atlas Pro too so it's just DD left. Making it 4wd won't be difficult as their dual ESC's and general modularity on the Atlas boards is brilliant. To your final question, it runs in parallel with the existing battery on the board. Once connected the bat reading on the AUX pack and remote sync up, and by charging one battery you charge both which is pretty neat.

[@MoshMob]

It would be revolutionary if it wasnt sent to multiple people over christmas break with a bunk charger and multiple other issues. cool you got the aux pack tho, i been wondering how much range thatd add.

[@ASeSkater]

More range than I'd ever need on one ride is the answer

[@MoshMob]

@@ASeSkater I got the atlas pro as well and it’s gonna be some time before I can afford the auxpack, but I rode it 4wd on a ride and got about 14 miles, I’ll try 2 wheel drive as well when I get the new charger for it (they sent one with a bad charger) but I’m definitely inspired by your videos and how you explain these boards!

[@ASeSkater]

@@MoshMob Cheers that means a lot 🤙 Btw I had the OG Atlas 4WD and when I ran it as 2WD I found it was a great idea to remove the front 2 belts from the pulleys. It reduces the drag / pulley resistance and your 2WD range (on your 4WD pro) is improved. Hope they send you out a fresh charger

[@MoshMob]

@@ASeSkater yeah it was your video I got the idea to remove to 2 belts when I rode 2wd! I will be trying that out and comparing with belts on and off to see if the range is better

[@MoshMob]

@@Blindish22 I’ve been charging for about 45 minutes then letting it cool then charging again until it’s full just so it lasts a bit longer. I’ve heard from so many people who face this same issue and hopefully when Exway comes back on February 1st, they’ll take this issue seriously. Will be posting an update on all my issue in the next few days so stay tuned!

[@MichaelHurdleStudio]

No lie, Exway has some really good products (When they work), They just really need to work on their customer service. By the way, I got a bad ESC on my Atlas Pro 4WD board, Exway is sending me another Test ESC whatever that means, What glue should I buy so that when I get the ESC I can replace the ESC with the correct ESC glue. Can anyone lend a helping hand?

[@ASeSkater]

I’d ask exway in the emails you have with them 💪

[@brentcarter3284]

Sorry for the unrelated comment but you have experience and give honest opinions. I have an opportunity to buy what looks to be an essentially unused Evolve GTX Bamboo for $430 US. Is it worth it or should I wait and spend more for a more recent board? Thanks for your time.

[@ASeSkater]

Hey buddy. The GTX Bamboo was my second ever board and I put 3000 miles on it so I know it well. At the time it was amazing. Carves beautifully. Can take all terrain wheels and many street wheels. The main downfall of that board is the battery. It sags quite a lot. After 50% you need to start thinking about getting home. You have far better options today. If you want to stay with evolve and go for a bamboo deck, their GTR or GTR series 2 bamboo used should only be a few hundred bucks more than that GTX you’re looking at. Just be careful not to buy one that’s been ridden for thousands of miles as the battery cells will have degraded. I rode the gtr for a few thousand miles too and in general the battery is pretty good. It held up great for me and I made a review on this channel 👍 best of luck

[@brentcarter3284]

@@ASeSkater Thanks for the speedy reply. You saved me from spending money in a less than optimum way and I appreciate that. I'm looking for the most fun per dollar and realize that doesn't equate to the lowest price option. I'll keep an eye out for a GTR Series 2. I have to admit you and your friend's statements on the WoWgo AT2 Plus made it sound pretty appealing. I want something that will go offroad on reasonably smooth trails but primarily I'm seeking the flow that comes from pumping and carving a longboard.

[@ASeSkater]

@@brentcarter3284 you caught me at a good time. The Wowgo AT 2 Plus sounds like it would suit your needs quite well. It’s a very fun, carvy and comfortable board that handles off road well too 👌

[@ronnie5966]

Where do you plug in the charger?

[@ASeSkater]

Into the battery itself on the side. It has a grommet for that

[@ronnie5966]

@@ASeSkater Do you plug in the 1000w charger into the board or into the aux pack? Can you charge the board with the 1000w charger without the aux pack?

[@ASeSkater]

@@ronnie5966 you can plug it into either. Once you hook up aux it works in parallel. So will charge both batteries at once

[@jamesfarquhar8507]

People still waiting for the hoverboard, like this isn’t orders of magnitude better in terms of agility and you can recharge it in a Starbucks. Until we invent a longboard with 4 rocket boosters and a Flight ESC this is as far as humans come.

[@user-mo3qj4km7c]

Like I keep saying...couldn't this have been a little thinner? It's almost Like a building standing in the center of your board.

[@ajplant96]

It’s not massively popular yet but these charge packs themselves have been around for a while more than just mountainboards so this isn’t exway being revolutionary. Chi batteries build these types of packs as do some other battery builders (local to me there’s a group of evolve riders using them made by a builder in the local scene), exway will however make it a more popular range solution which they kinda needed to since they thought 4p and 4wd would be a good idea for some reason.

[@ASeSkater]

That is true. I'd been talking to chi a couple of months ago and they were supposed to send one out but it didn't materialise. I loved the concept and wished it had USB ports and had a better hookup system and hardware. Then Exway came out with this which was music to my ears lol

[@d.d8-vr926]

I was told.. by Exway.. that the aux battery would ALSO be available for the atlas 2wd and 4wd... not the pro... Is this compactible with the OG atlas? TWO.. I can see that your belts are exposed... yet I was made to believe that Exway made belt covers that was standard on all Exway PRO Atlas boards... ?.. Reason I'm asking is cos the current covers SUCK.. lots of belt rubbing.. (stop it!!..that trail of thought).. I can see the belts failing because of this issue.. Your views?

[@ASeSkater]

Hey. Exway are designing a different version for the original atlas 2wd and 4wd boards. As far as I know the enclosed belt covers don’t come for free with the pro. That might have been the case for a short while for a promotion. I personally haven’t had any issues with things getting stuck in the stock belt covers or any rubbing, but I haven’t taken the board off road either. If I went off road I would probably take them off

[@d.d8-vr926]

@@ASeSkater That's interesting to hear. I was informed by the sales team that November 2022 the Aux would be already available for both versions.. but we will see? I mean it's not like I can afford it at the moment, having just done Christmas. I guess some of the information I was led to believe about the covers isn't true? Or maybe some people had them already installed upon purchase? The clearance for me is pretty much non existent with one of my belts and it actually stop my wheel from turning freely.
